These three articles are nothing but dictionary definitions, and based on my search for source, will never be anything more than dictionary definitions. Also, the accuracy of the given definitions is in question as noted on the Black Recording talk page. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 00:09, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

- Delete. The terms were invented (as far as I can tell) in a glossary of terms used to standardise terminology in military specifications and contracts for telecom equipment. They appear to have no wider usage outside that narrow field (if indeed they were ever used there at all). The glossary has since lazily been copied in other publications without any real editorial input (including here at Wikipedia where the whole thing was used to dump a mass of stub articles). Putting aside notability issues, even merging all three together (along with the missing white recording) would not make a decent article. Spinning Spark 07:58, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- I feel like these could be merged somewhere more inclusive, but I also feel like the title, "Black recording", intuitively should point readers to an article with some relevance to Black music. BD2412 T 03:46, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to Black music. Sources do not support that a standalone article is warranted. MrsSnoozyTurtle 04:06, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- If that was done, it should be "delete and redirect" since it is a complete repurposing of the page. I would be against it since the term "black recording" only appears adjectively (black recording artists, black recording studios etc) and we don't do adjectives as titles per WP:NOUN. Maybe justified if a sensible disambiguation page could be constructed. Note that this has not addressed the other titles nominated. Spinning Spark 07:19, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
